THE TREATY.

1t will be remembered that one OF
the questions affecting the prospects Of
the treaty Of reciprocity, which W S
still pending when Congress adjourned,
was whether the ratification of the
House Of Representatives was necessary
TO the renewal of the convention. From
the following despatch Of the special
correspondent of the New York ./ou,nal
Of Commerce, dated March I3th, the
probability is apparent that Congress
would decide for an Act Of both
Houses being requisite to effect a
renewal of the treaty for definite
term. We are indebted to Mr.. ]. B.
Anterior for copy Of the paper from
which the despatch IS quoted:
A day or two after the Senate acted
upon the proposition to extend the
Hawaiian treaty for seven years, a reso-
luton introduced by Mr.. Wallace, OF
Louisiana, was adopted by the House
of Representatives instructing the Ju-
dietary Committee to report TO the
House whether such treaty could be
valid and binding without the concur
renee of the House of Representatives.
The report OF the Judiciary Committee
upon this question was presented to
the House on the last day Of the SEES
sion by Mr.. Tucker, and has just been
received from the Public Printer. The
report is thorough and exhaustive il
calls attention, among other things, to
the fact that the treaty of Utrecht ir
respect Of reciprocity of commerce be
tween Great Britain and France wal
never consummated, Parliament reject
ing it. The report refers to the reso
luton Of the House of Representative
in the First Congress, declaring III
right to act upon treaty which stipu
lates regulations on any of the subjects
submitted by the Constitution to thu
power Of Congress. In conclusion, tn,
committee recommend the adoption O
a resolution declaring that the exten
sion OF the term for the operation Q
the Hawaiian treaty will not be bindin
upon the United States without tn,
sanction of an Act Of. Congress, whic'
was provided for in the original treat,
1t is highly probable that if the matte
be brought before the next Congress
similar resolution will be reported b
the Judiciary Committee Of the Hous
and adopted. The existing treaty wa
made for seven years from August u
1876, the date Of the approval Of tn
Act of Congress to carry it into efec
and further until the expiration I
twelve months after either of the hig
contracting parties shall give notice
the other Of its wish to terminate ii
same. So long as the King Of Hawa
and the President OF the United State
desire the extension Of the treaty f
seven years longer, it is not likely tn
the twelve months notice will be give
OF desire to terminate the treaty, an
it is by no means certain that majori
Of the next House would not vote
extend the treaty for seven years.

PEOPLE WHO CAN READ HEBREW.
There Are Many in Indianapolis Who Under

'"The Hebrew language" said Rabbi Messing,
pastor of the Indianapolis Hebrew congregation,
in conversation with Journal reporter, sis not
altogether dead language. 1t is understood by
a great many more people here in your midst
than you aware. The members Of my
gregation, with very few exceptions, can read
Hebrew, though few have great understanding
of the tongue. The prayers of the church
read in Hebrew, and the translation, sometimes
in German, sometimes in English, is on the
opposite page of the book. A number Of mem
bers understand the language very WE'LL Among
these are Herman Bamberger, Jacob Sonneberg,
DR.. Pink. Leon Kahn, A. Cohen, Herman Moss
Ter and NJ. Emden. I suppose there are a num-

several occasions by persons taking these lessons
on words or expressions they did not understand.
1 have about fifty Jewish children studying the
language now. These children cannot speak it.
but most of them read well. 1 ask them ques-
tons in Hebrew and they understand and
answer correctly and readily in English. There
are number of young ladies who have learned
a great deal OF the language. Among these are

They study 1t all their lives and all their serv-
ices that tongue It is not so difficult to
learn is generally believed When person
knows the root words of the Hebrew tongue-
about 500 in number-he can readily
acquire the language. I consider both
German and English as difficult
to learn than Hebrew If the languages were
better understood by Christian preachers they
would be better able to explain the Old Tesla
ment Scriptures, because of having clearer
understanding themselves. Only Hebrew
scholar can know the mistakes that have been
made in the translation of the Bible. DIR. Son

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Aug. 25.-A Times special

element prevails in the: Southwestern part of
Lonoke county rumored negro uprising.
The trouble over a quarrel between a
white man named Clarence Chapman
and negro named Hunt. Chapman
for some work he had done for Chapman.
A few days ago Hunt and four other armed ne
groes attacked Chapman, and he was shot
through the hip. Three of the negroes were ar
rested, among them justice of the peace.
Since that time bands of armed negroes have
been collecting and threaten vengeance on the
whites. The sheriff of Lonoke has organized
formidable posse and has posted guards every
four miles from Clear lake to Lonoke, a distance
of eighteen miles. 1t is feared that there will
be much trouble before the difficulty is settled.

The financial affairs of the State of Indiana
have been brought by a Democratic administra-

empty and while 5000, 900 will be needed to pay
the current expenses of the government and the
State institutions there resources that
can be drawn upon before next December It is
little wonder with such display of extrava-
gance imbecilty that popular feeling in Indi-
ana is changing and the Democrats longer
regard the State as even doubtful. but practic-
ally certain to go Republican. No people can
long stand such Encouragement of their public
